A Palm Bay crew will work at an unprotected roof edge 7 ft above the lower level. Which control should be in place before work begins?
Correct Answer
B) fall protection system
At the stated height, employees at an unprotected edge need an approved fall protection method.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
At the stated height, employees at an unprotected edge need an approved fall protection method.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: a sign at the roof edge
a sign at the roof edge may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the fall protection trigger exposure being tested.
Option C: a spotter for the worker
a spotter for the worker may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the fall protection trigger exposure being tested.
Option D: a toeboard at the edge
a toeboard at the edge may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the fall protection trigger exposure being tested.
Memory Technique
the controlling choice Trigger lock for Superintendent Checks: height is the harm, employees is the guard.
Reference Hint
Open-book path: tab OSHA 29 CFR 1926 to Subpart M, 1926.501 Duty to have fall protection; verify the OSHA safety threshold or jobsite control before answering.
